Per-MW pricing, regional variance, and cost drivers for owners scoping hyperscale & AI builds.
Salary benchmarks across the 14 mission-critical disciplines.
Hire Materials Coordinators who control what hits the gate — receiving and MRR discipline, laydown and warehouse management, inventory control, OFCI equipment receipt, and staging that keeps install crews fed. Verified site-side materials history on large capital programs, not warehouse-only backgrounds.
A structured process for the hire that stands between deliveries and the install crews — where sloppy receiving means damaged switchgear discovered at set, and a laydown yard nobody can find anything in.
30-minute call. Align on site scale, laydown footprint, OFCI scope, inventory systems, shift coverage, and start date.
Within 2 weeks we introduce 3–5 Materials Coordinators with site-side, sector-matched materials history. References from prior superintendents and logistics leads included.
Every placement carries a replacement guarantee. If the hire fails within the warranty window, we run a no-fee replacement search.
Warehouse experience does not translate automatically to a live jobsite. We verify candidates have run receiving, laydown, and staging under construction-schedule pressure — with the paperwork discipline that survives an OFCI damage claim.
Reference-verified receiving, laydown, and staging on active capital projects — crane picks, delivery windows, and gate logistics included.
Verified material-receiving-report rigor: damage inspection at the gate, photo documentation, and clean paper trails for vendor and freight claims.
Verified inventory accuracy and crew-ready staging discipline — the difference between install crews building and install crews hunting.
Reference-verified gate inspection, MRR documentation, and OS&D (over, short, damaged) reporting rigor.
Verified yard layout, location tracking, and weather-protection discipline for stored equipment and materials.
Verified owner-furnished equipment receipt, storage-condition compliance, and chain-of-custody documentation.
Procore, Excel-based trackers, or ERP/WMS inventory tools verified — plus cycle-count discipline underneath.
Reference-verified staging cadence with superintendents and foremen — materials where crews need them, when they need them.
Materials Coordinator and Senior-level comp bands aligned before finalists are introduced.
Materials control on a hyperscale campus is a different job than a single-building project. Below are the specializations we recruit for:
We’ll help scope the role on the call — site scale, laydown footprint, and OFCI scope.
Time to shortlist is typically 2 weeks from scoping call. Total time to placement is typically 3–4 weeks. Delivery-surge deadlines can be prioritized.
Pricing depends on engagement model. Per-role recruiting is a defined fee. Embedded is a monthly retainer — usually the right model when you’re staffing several site-support roles at once.
In most US markets, Materials Coordinators on capital projects earn roughly $55k–$85k base. Senior coordinators covering multi-building campuses or heavy OFCI scope typically land $85k–$100k. Shift coverage and per-diem structure move the package.
The Procurement Coordinator works the chain before the gate — POs, vendor onboarding, expediting. The Materials Coordinator owns everything after the truck arrives: receiving, laydown, inventory, and staging. Large programs staff both and the handoff between them is where claims get won or lost.
Yes. OFCI receipt — witness documentation, storage-condition compliance, chain of custody — is a core screen for data center and semiconductor placements, where owner-furnished equipment dominates the critical path.
Yes. Every Materials Coordinator placement carries a replacement guarantee. Guarantee terms are confirmed in writing at engagement start.
Yes. Multi-hire builds (materials coordinators + logistics + procurement staff) route through embedded recruiting or RPO.
30-minute scoping conversation. We’ll review the Materials Coordinator role you need, site scale, laydown footprint, and OFCI scope — then start sourcing.
